As Wonder Woman comes face to face with the fury of the Dragon Shogun, Luthor is about to just how much his counter part has changed this world.

Coming out of his hiding spot, Luthor watched as Regime Rodan and Regime Hawkgirl carried an unconscious Wonder Woman by her arms into the night sky. Everything he'd seen in this world seemed to be a darker version of his world. More harsh, more savage, more evil.

"Interesting, it seems that the heroes in this place are more brutal then those in my world." noticed Luthor observantly.

"You'll know what brutal means very soon!" called out a voice behind him. Turning around, Luthor saw a small man with two escrima sticks in his hand. But it was the the bird shape symbol on his black and red outfit and the mask on his eye that made Luthor realize who this was.

"Nightwing?"

"The one and only." replayed Insurgent Nightwing with a more deeper and aggressive voice then Luthor was used to hearing from his Nightwing. "A friend of mine told me there was bold headed idiot around here, fighting an another Wonder Woman wannabe." explained Insurgent Nightwing poking Luthor with his escrima. "You might have same egg headed look and the same outfit as him, but you're no Lex Luthor."

"Normally I don't take insults from teenage dumb heads like you. But now I have, and you will pay for it!" replayed Luthor enraged by Insurgent Nightwings insult.

"Bring it, Egg head!" tempted Insurgent Nightwing suddenly unloaded a series of hits with his escrimas onto Luthor. Blocking his head, Luthor brought both of his hands down on Insurgent Nightwing causing him to stop. Within a flash, Insurgent Nightwing uppercut Luthor into the sky, but as Luthor came down he brought his axe down onto Insurgent Nightwing with disturbing force. But Insurgent Nightwing cut in off as he caused a clash exchanged.

"Here comes the hot sauce!" yelled Insurgent Nightwing with eagerness.

"I am not impressed." admitted Luthor disappointingly. Both clashed together with amazing force, but Luthor was able to send Insurgent Nightwing flying back. Taking his opportunity, Luthor locked his weapons onto Insurgent Nightwing as he was struck by a laser from the sky, unable to get back up in defeat. "Like I said, I am not impressed." reminded Luthor as he walked up to the bewildered Insurgent Nightwing.

"It's you...The way you talk...The way you..."

"Hit?"

"Well... sort of."

"It's what happens when a brute is defeated by a genius such as myself." commented Luthor actually helping Insurgent Nightwing up.

"I don't understand. Luthor's been dead for five years...But you seem-"

"This isn't my world or my Gotham." admitted Luthor to the confused Insurgent Nightwing. "Yet I'm, the one and only Lex Luthor, boy." at that moment, Insurgent Nightwing realized that this was the really Lex Luthor. But instead of anger or fury, the young Nightwing saw this as hope. Luthor was the only one who brought Manzilla down to this point, until his death. Surely if Luthor returned then he can help stop Manzilla.

"I don't believe it, you're actually back!" realized Insurgent Nightwing as he disbelife turned into a spark of hope. "Come on, They're are people here who need someone like you around." asked Insurgent Nightwing leading the confused Luthor away from the alley and into the darkness of Gotham.

X Stryker's Island...

Deep in Stryker's Island, soldiers and MUTOs alike bowed their heads down as the Dragon Shogun and Regime Mothra made their through them, and towards the captured Wonder Woman. Regime Mothra had always liked to be the center of attention after joining the One Earth Government, and Regime Manzilla always felt like a rightful king when people bow to his majesty.

"At least some people know when to respect a King." thought Regime Manzilla as he and Regime Mothra continued on their course. Inside her holding cell, Wonder Woman stood powerless in her arm restraints. If this had been in her world, she would of easily broke her way out of here. But Regime Rodan had beaten her so much that she was too weak to fly or even make a fist with her hands.

"Alright then Diana. Ready for some visitors? Want some makeup on?" asked Regime Rodan as Regime Manzilla and Regime Mothra made their way in. This was like a never ending nightmare for Wonder Woman. The one man she'd had took pity on and raised to be a hero, was now a walking terror, a monstrous man with the power to do whatever he wants, there wasn't even a trace of the Manzilla she used to know on this man. Something about the Manzilla was very, very troubled.

"Not bad Petrie." admitted Regime Mothra as Regime Manzilla study his restrained prisoner. "Must of been a nightmare over powering her."

"Wasn't easy, but after five years, we finally have her." admitted Regime Rodan proudly.

"But it's not our Wonder Woman." responded Regime Manzilla having caught Wonder Woman's scent.

"What?!" asked Regime Rodan shocked by this discovery.

"This Wonder Woman is completely different." explained Regime Manzilla as Regime Mothra took a look at the beaten Amazon.

"Well...she has seemed to have gotten rid of those scale patches. And seems to be wearing her old outfit." guessed Regime Mothra remembering what Wonder Woman used to be like before she turned her back on her allies.

"There's that. And there's the fact that her scent is all wrong." added Regime Manzilla as he walked to the restrained Wonder Woman, looking her straight in the eye with primeval eyes before looking down at her. "You know, I forgot you used to wear leggings."

"Some memory you have." muttered Wonder Woman defiantly. Angered, Regime Manzilla swiped out a katana from his right gauntlet and holding it close to Wonder Woman's neck as it glowed a neon-blue.

"Don't push you're luck, Diana! I have spent five years rounding up these lesser beings and hunting you down, just to bring order to this pathetic excuse for a planet!" warned Regime Manzilla as he walked back sheathing his katana back into his gauntlet.

"You're not my Manzilla." hissed Wonder Woman gasping for air after feeling the katana across her throat. That really stuck Regime Manzilla as memories raced back into his head, of that weak, immature boy that called himself Manzilla. Turning his head at Wonder Woman, Regime Manzilla blasted his atomic breath at Wonder Woman. But when Regime Mothra and Regime Rodan thought it was going to kill her, it actually hit the wall next to her, just about missing her face.

"I'm the new improved version." answered Regime Manzilla as his atomic breath died down.

"What do you want?" asked Wonder Woman finally as Regime Manzilla walked back up to her.

"You're one of the duplicates." answered Regime Manzilla intently. "And what to know everything you know."

Poor Wonder Woman, caged up like an animal and at the mercy of the Dragon Shogun. Let's hope rescue comes real soon for her.
